Rhino Conservation Weekend

You have an opportunity to take part in a Rhino experience that you will never forget…

This hands on adventure will focus on the efforts to protect the Rhino. You will view the darting, notching and implantation of a chip into the Rhino’s horn. Further to this, DNA dat is collected and submitted to the National DNA database.

You are invited to join us for an exceptionally wild and educational weekend where you will have an unforgettable, life changing moment to take part in our Rhino conservation efforts. To touch and be touched by true magnificence…
